Mikkeli Cathedral stands in Mikkeli, Southern Savonia, Finland, and is dedicated to St Michael. Josef Stenbäck, a Finnish church architect, designed it in the Gothic Revival style, which the article says he shared with many other churches he designed. It was built between 1896 and 1897, and a bell tower rises in the western gable.
The altar painting, Crucified, was completed in 1899 by Pekka Halonen. The organ, built in 1956 by the Kangasala Organ Factory, has 51 stops. The church holds 1,200 seats, and the infobox lists its completion in 1897, two years before the altar painting.
It is the cathedral of the Mikkeli diocese in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. The article names the current bishop as Seppo Häkkinen.
